So, I have had a dress emergency in the past week. My great friend’s daughter is getting married this weekend and I had ordered dresses from all over the place when I was healing from my hip surgery. I found one I really loved- took it to the dry cleaner to be steamed/pressed and…. They lost it. I found out on Thursday of last week and have been in a bit of a panic ever since. However- I drove up to The Red Brick Cottage today and went in right as they opened. I explained the situation and we got right to work. Since I had to buy off the rack, I didn’t know how many dresses I would have to choose from, but I had at least 12 that I liked. And, in about 35 minutes, I walked out the door with two dresses. The customer service, conversation and ability to help me solve a frustrating problem was exemplary. If you are looking for formal wear, bridal or boutique clothing in sizes 12/14 & up, I highly recommend them. Great experience.

Highlighted review.

Countless times I've gone formal dress shopping only to leave the "big box store" in tears and disappointment. The dresses off the rack never fit. I am so thankful I found The Re...

d Brick Cottage for my formal attire. I made an appointment for a private dress fitting and all attention was on me! It felt amazing to work with staff who understood my concern with sizing and my desire to feel beautiful on my special day. The very first dress I tried on fit like it was made for me. No alterations necessary (which is always a plus). Most importantly, I felt and looked beautiful. My experience was absolutely amazing. I will be visiting this sweet boutique from this moment on. I highly recommend them!

th me and made me feel like a very special bride! I was so nervous about finding bridesmaid dresses but she made it super easy and I was able to find dresses for all of my girls! All of her dresses were super affordable and when they arrived they were of amazing quality! Even after all my bridesmaids were satisfied I went back to help my mother find a dress! I definitely couldn’t have been more pleased! I definitely recommend this place for brides looking for the perfect dress for their bridesmaids!

se along the way. The fittings went great, I felt so beautiful, and the last dress I tried on was the one! I had looked at this place a long time ago and when I couldn't find anything online that didn't break the bank or my dreams, we made the appointment and the trip. I couldn't be more happy with the quality, price, and professionalism of Michelle and her boutique, definitely check it out if you're a big busted curvy girl like me! Ill be back in July to order and I can't wait!!

e ladies, specialize in clothing for curvy ladies. Michelle immediately made me less anxious with her professionalism, her kindness and her understanding ways. I told her what I had in mind and she had it ready when I went for my appointment. She also had other suggestions, as did my daughters. Not only did I find "the dress" but ended up with two other formal dresses for upcoming cruises. And maybe some other pieces. They are very knowledgeable. And the prices were incredibly reasonable. Highly recommend this shop.

This vendor while new to Wedding Dresses, and dresses for bridal party, mother and so on, is right on the mark. They cater to plus size women. The owner, Michelle, who is a plus ...

size woman herself can relate to the bride on so many levels and help alleviate many of the stresses of getting the perfect dress (from shapewear, bra's and even accessories). My daughter a plus size woman who just had a baby and felt like there was no way she would find her special dress. Not only did she find her dress, it was AFFORDABLE, and she was pampered throughout the whole process. To watch my daughter go from nervous about the process and feeling hopeless to crying when she tried on the perfect one, was so emotional and amazing. The dresses aren't size 0, they are plus size to try on so you really get a look whether you need alterations or not (we don't, other than hemming) and I honestly can't rate this little shop/boutique anything but EXCELLENT! If you are plus size, don't let this shop get by you, you will not be sorry!
